I instantly like your posts, for the record. you seem like a nice kid.
also so far I think you could be any quadra but beta.

Hm, yeah, he did seem a little unsettled...trying to think of what I said that offended him but it's coming up blank.Originally Posted by blackburry
Thank you very much
Of all the types I'm considering, i've narrowed it down to: ENFp, ESFp, ISFP, INFj (perhaps the last one is a bit of a stretch) I mean, I'm probably xxFp; but like Narc says, I'll have to wait till I'm a little more...settled. :3
That's a rather wide range of types; you're looking at,
,
, all of which (save IEE and EII) are from completely different quadras. Looking into the IM elements and getting away from the dichotomies is a good start if you want some better possibilities to work with.

I think I still have MBTI theory in the back of my mind: lurking away, influencing my decisions when i'm trying to adapt to socionics.That's a rather wide range of types; you're looking at
Since I now have types to consider, I'll look into the quadras. I was lost before. (as long as those types seem reasonable to me, that is..?)
Most of the people here were once infected with the MBTI virusI think I still have MBTI theory in the back of my mind: lurking away, influencing my decisions when i'm trying to adapt to socionics.
I'd especially recommend you to look at the valued pairs Ni/Se, Ne/Si, Ti/Fe, Te/Fi maybe one springs out and you're sure you don't value it (or do). I could for example rule Ni/Se out what left me with four types because I was sure to be a logical type.
Good to hear other people feel a sort of disdain to it tooMost of the people here were once infected with the MBTI virusit seems to be less about understanding the theory and more of loading stereotypes (false ones at that) onto people...I've been typed as Ne so many times, when i may not be. Other people have told me I've been typed as Ne because of the bias that exists - y'know, if you're random and intelligent (not saying this is true, this is what other people have said. I hope they're right
Hopefully I'll be able to at least rule some out. I never could in MNTI theory - all the functions seemed to have a place; never dominant in one, ideally equal in all...though I know this is false; my introspection is probably not realistic...
cheers :3
I exactly know what you mean and feel with youGood to hear other people feel a sort of disdain to it too. It's more the forum users fault than MBTI's fault but IMO MBTI and even more Keirsy highly incites to such behaviour.
Socionics is pretty rigid and every IE has his exact place. I wouldn't argue with someone who doesn't appreceate it because of its rigidness.
I was confronted with MBTI the first time with 16 and I also couldn't relate to certain functions or types. Because interests are changinc a lot at this age people can see them in many types (I don't want to say that interests are bound to types)
If you're interested just start to read different articles in the article section. There's the possibility that type, valued IEs(functions) etc. will peel out.
Here's a link about quadras with some more specific descriptions if you are interested http://www.the16types.info/vbulletin...cs-Four-Quadra
